Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel launched the new www.OhioTreasurer.gov website today that for the first time in Ohio government history includes a fully searchable state employee salary database with updated 2011 figures.
This is the first time that an Ohio elected official has posted such comprehensive information online in such a user-friendly and searchable manner.
The website has been designed to improve online services for Ohioans, including portals for increased government transparency, investment in Ohio bonds, constituent assistance, expanded online learning and easier access to ePayments. Ohioans may also view the new website in mobile format on their smartphones.
“The new website features a comprehensive and searchable state salary database for the first time in Ohio government history as part of my desire to make government more accessible and accountable to Ohioans," Mandel said.
"The goal of these transparency initiatives is to help Ohioans follow their tax dollars and see how their hard-earned money is being spent. The site was designed to leverage technology and improve online services for all Ohioans.
"The website aims to help our state government keep up with the best private sector practices by utilizing technology to become more customer-focused and responsive to the needs of Ohio taxpayers and constituents.”
